Geography

faust18 [17]3 years ago
7 0
The primary cause of change in regional metamorphism is pressure. Usually rocks subjected to high pressures at considerable depth within the earth's crust will exhibit regional metamorphism like the widespread phyllites, schists, gneisses and migmatites of the Canadian Precambrian Shield for example. A phyllite is the next higher metamorphic stage than a slate, a schist is a further stage and gneiss and migmatites are of the highest grade of regional metamorphism. On the other hand, contact metamorphism usually depends more on the effect of heat from an igneous intrusion say converting a limestone to a marble (more coarse grained than limestone usually).

In which of the following climate zones do giant pandas live?
masya89 [10]

The correct answer is - d. deciduous forest.

The giant panda lives in the deciduous forested parts of China were the climate is temperate, wet, moisty, and most importantly covered in bamboo trees. The bamboo tree is the only food source of the giant pandas, and it is essential for their survival. Unlike the other bears the giant panda is not an omnivore, and in its evolution due to a genetic mutation it lost its taste for meat and became exclusively a bamboo eater. It is on the verge of extinction nowadays and strict measures are needed for this lovely animal to be protected and preserved.
